“45 students. The kids who never stop talking — completely silent during the stargazing session. Three students said they want to study astrophysics now.”

Good to know

Is it safe for students?

Yes. A dedicated staff member for every 15 students, separate zones for students and teachers, a guide at every activity and first aid on site.

How many teachers should come?

At least one teacher per 15 students. Our staff support but can’t replace school faculty.

Is it a day trip or overnight?

Both. Overnight trips include the telescope; day trips run 10 AM to 4 PM without it.

What’s the booking process?

Enquiry, then a quotation within 24 hours, then date confirmation with a 30% advance. The balance is due 7 days before arrival, with an official invoice.
